The intangible barrier known as the glass ceiling effect limits the promotion of women or minorities to the highest positions in an organization.

The glass ceiling effect refers to the unseen yet impenetrable barrier that keeps women and minorities from reaching the top rungs (CEOs, COOs and bosses) of an organizational ladder despite their work performance, abilities, skills and educational background.

The term glass ceiling effect was first introduced in the Wall Street Journal in 1986.
